The 2006 sequoia frames were recalled due to excessive rust, but…

I've had a mechanic inspect the damage and he concurred that the rust is far worse than would be expected for a vehicle of this age. The metal is pitted and flakes of rust are falling off of the rear axle housing. I contacted a local toyota dealership to have it inspected but they would not even look at the vehicle…

This concerns me due to the welds being the main component that bonds together the suspension pieces. The frame is showing an unusual amount of rust for such a young vehicle and poses a safety risk to…
